John had passed over a year ago, but due to the pandemic, the family could not return home to Towanda, to find the obituary he himself had written and directed the family to use at the time of his death.
A couple of things John does not mention that the family wishes all to know is first, Johnâs job had him traveling the world, but though he was many times offered jobs in many countries and states, he always chose to keep his family in his beloved Towanda, Pennsylvania. Also, John was extremely modest about his accomplishments and contributions to his communities, workforce and mankind.
